This is just a friendly reminder because some of you out there are not paying attention.
Support for GP 8 ends on 10/9/2007. MS only supports 2 versions of GP at a time and now that 10 has been released, 8 will fade off into the sunset. Where are my v10 CD's anyway?
IF YOU ARE ON GP 8 PAYROLL PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THIS!!!
Sorry for the shouting but when 9.0 was released quite a few 7.5 people were caught with their pants down. This means you won't get payroll tax updates beyond this point. The clock is ticking, you have been warned.
Update: An anonymous reader has left comment on this post that MS is extending support for v 8.0 to October 13, 2009. Fake Steve Balmer didn't mention it when we had fake lunch last week, but it certainly is possible. Neither Customersource nor Google have any information yet but as soon as I know for sure, I'll post an update. For now I'm just spreading basely rumors.
Perhaps MS has finally finished that Windows time machine and even though support really ends in 2007, they'll bring you back in time for the next two years of support!
Update: The US Dynamics GP Field Team Blog is also reporting that support for v.8 is extended to Oct. 13, 2009. The link they include is for Partnersource and I can't get at it. Customersource is still showing 2007 very prominently. Any partners want to confirm this for me?
Update: Partners are chiming in that this is for real and GP will announce that they are extending support for version 8 for two more years. Yahoo! Still no official announcement on CustomerSource.
